Sting 3.0
Following a series of sold-out shows and rave reviews across Europe, North America, Asia, Africa, South America, and beyond, 17-time GRAMMY Award winner STING has announced one “STING 3.0” performance in Austria. The newly added date is part of the acclaimed European tour leg, presented by the Cherrytree Music Company and Live Nation.
Joined by longtime guitarist Dominic Miller and dynamic drummer Chris Maas (Mumford & Sons, Maggie Rogers), Sting reinvents his most beloved hits distilling each into a lean, explosive three-piece that harness the full power of his voice and songwriting.
The Austrian leg of the tour will make a stop at Salzburg’s Residenzplatz on June 4.
A groundbreaking artist both as a solo performer and as the frontman/bassist and principal songwriter for The Police, Sting continues to redefine and expand his musical horizons. Under the management of Martin Kierszenbaum/Cherrytree Music Company, his innovative spirit remains central to the “STING 3.0” Tour, which spotlights new creative interpretations of his timeless catalog and inspired his latest single, “I Wrote Your Name (Upon My Heart)” — mixed by four-time GRAMMY Award-winning engineer Robert Orton, released on Cherrytree Music Company/Interscope Records. Additionally, a new live album, STING 3.0 LIVE, is now available digitally, on CD and on 180g vinyl. Also recorded on the “STING 3.0” Tour, STING 3.0 LIVE is a collection of his greatest hits, including “Be Still My Beating Heart,” which has never-before been released as a live version. The 10-song digital album also features a live recording of “Fragile,” Sting’s 1987 single, which was recently covered by a children’s choir in an episode of the Netflix miniseries Adolescence.

The general on sale will begin Friday, October 23 at 10AM local time on sting.com. Tickets for all other previously announced “STING 3.0” tour dates are on-sale now.
